I ran across a guy who had a set he made himself using Keller shells. Sound as good or better than any other kit I have heard and cost probably 1/2 the price of a DW kit. Of course results will vary depending on your skills at doing stuff like this. Also head selection and tuning is key to a good sound. You can make any drum sound good if you have a good head, the drum is round (not warped) and the bearing edges are in good condition.
